These pages span more than 70 years of motor bus history. The early days are recalled by the growth of a pioneering North Wales bus business, and by the rise and decline of the fascinating private hire fleets of the London General and its successors. The nostalgic era of the late twenties is revived by reminiscences of two of London's early coach stations, and the difficult years of the thirties are recalled by one manufacturer's efforts to keep going in a dwindling PSV market. Early AEC Regents are remembered for the great diversity of body styles once available on them and, in later vein, the development of the underfloor engined chassis is fully outlined. Belfast's first trolley- buses are remembered and so are rural independent operators of the nineteen fifties. The achievements of a leading bus preservationist are described, and we also look at up-to- the-moment matters in the bus world and in bus preservation.
